Anti-Poaching Tripwire

This tripwire is designed to make an load noise when triggered to scare off near by animals to prevent poaching. I used the accelerometer on the CPX to detect if the board is in free fall. When the trap is triggered the CPX falls and an alarm is played through the speaker.

I used one of the on board buttons as a quick shut off for the alarm. The CPX is secured to the wall by a rail system build from 2 tubes that slide down 2 lengths of twine. This makes sure the CPX only fall straight down.
